Solaris ls comes with the -e option which prints the mtime up to the second, but in the format "mmm dd hh:mm:ss yyyy " which makes it harder to parse.
You need to write a shell function or shell script which takes two timestamps, one being the timestamp from ls and one the output of the date command, and then calculate the time difference.

dh_installwm
DH_INSTALLWM(1) Debhelper DH_INSTALLWM(1)
NAME
dh_installwm - register a window manager
SYNOPSIS
dh_installwm [debhelperoptions] [-n] [--priority=n] [wm...]
DESCRIPTION
dh_installwm is a debhelper program that is responsible for generating the postinst and prerm commands that register a window manager with
update-alternatives(8). The window manager's man page is also registered as a slave symlink (in v6 mode and up). It must be installed in
usr/share/man/man1/ in the package build directory prior to calling dh_installwm. In compat 9 and earlier, the manpage was optional.
FILES
debian/package.wm
List window manager programs to register.
OPTIONS
--priority=n
Set the priority of the window manager. Default is 20, which is too low for most window managers; see the Debian Policy document for
instructions on calculating the correct value.
-n, --no-scripts
Do not modify postinst/prerm scripts. Turns this command into a no-op.
wm ...
Window manager programs to register.
NOTES
Note that this command is not idempotent. dh_prep(1) should be called between invocations of this command. Otherwise, it may cause multiple
instances of the same text to be added to maintainer scripts.
SEE ALSO
debhelper(7)
This program is a part of debhelper.
